Keep Your Violin, Viola, or Cello in Top Playing Condition

Regular maintenance is key to keeping your instrument sounding its best. Whether you’ve noticed a change in tone, buzzing, or just want a professional assessment, our Instrument Check-Up ensures that your violin, viola, or cello is in peak condition.

What Happens During an Instrument Check-Up?

✔ Full Inspection by an Expert Luthier – We’ll carefully examine your instrument for any signs of wear, open seams, cracks, or structural issues.

✔ Bridge & Soundpost Adjustment – Minor shifts in these essential components can dramatically affect your sound. We’ll assess their positioning and make small adjustments if needed.

✔ Peg & Fine Tuner Evaluation – Sticky or slipping pegs? Unresponsive fine tuners? We’ll check and lubricate these parts to ensure smooth tuning.

✔ Fingerboard & Nut Wear Assessment – Over time, grooves can develop on the fingerboard or nut, affecting playability. We’ll evaluate whether any resurfacing or adjustments are necessary.

✔ String Condition & Recommendations – Worn-out strings can dull your sound. We’ll check for fraying, dead spots, or buildup and recommend replacements if needed.

✔ Bow Condition Review (Optional) – If you bring your bow, we’ll assess the hair and condition to determine if a rehair or other maintenance is needed.

✔ Cleaning & Basic Care Advice – We’ll wipe down your instrument and offer guidance on at-home care to extend the life of your setup.
